Customer reviews

Gough Group

"The Gough Group has been working with Gareth Kiernan and the Infometrics team for more than 6 years now. The analysis provided, and the easy translation of complex sets of data into understandable and relevant information, has been a crucial factor in the development of the strategic planning processes within the Group, and aiding our growth. The independent and unbiased analysis of a range of markets and indicators has been especially useful when combined with tailored Infometrics one-on-one and Group presentations.

Our senior management teams find these presentations, and the on-line data sets and analysis, a great aid in forming a view of future markets. We would have no hesitation recommending the team at Infometrics to anyone looking for a concise and insightful view of the macro and micro economic environment."

– Group Manager Project Planning and Optimisation

The Skills Organisation

“Gareth presented information about our sectors in an enlightening and engaging way. The economic insights were tailored to our industries and helped us shape our strategic and operational plans.”

– The Skills Organisation

BCITO Skills Summit 2015

"BCITO thanks the Infometrics team for their ongoing contribution to the work of the BCITO, and particularly the contribution made to the BCITO Skills Summit 2015 on 22 October at Te Papa. Gareth Kiernan’s presentation set the scene nicely for us to build on as the day progressed. The demographic picture, in particular, encouraged our audience to consider the challenges facing their business in a way they would not normally do."

– Ruma Karaitiana, CEO, BCITO

BCITO - Building and Construction Industry Training Organisation

"Infometrics do an awesome job for the BCITO, and they are a very important part of our business. We have worked with them for many years and built a strong working relationship with the Infometrics team. Their knowledge, expertise and the way they make data so easily accessible are key reasons why their service works for BCITO.

The Infometrics team have comprehensive knowledge of the construction sector and their building forecasts help us understand the environment in which we operate. Their collaborative approach results in an excellent understanding of construction sector drivers, and provide us with a solid basis for future planning.

One of the things we really love about Infometrics is the informative and topical way information is presented. They take the time to ensure key messages make sense to our wider readership. In addition to written / web material, we incorporate Informetrics into industry and BCITO presentations. These opportunities to interact with the Infometrics team are highly valued with our people taking the opportunity to tap into their considerable economic knowledge.

The Infometrics Sector Profiles are vital for our business and make our lives so much easier. They bring together a vast array of information for each of the 15 construction sectors that we operate in. The Profile Tool is easy to use and we wish they had been developed years ago."

– Greg Durkin, Group Manager Stakeholder Engagement, BCITO

A prominent South Island Council

"The Infographics are great for information requests.

… The seminars have given us access to an Infometrics economist and a region specific presentation which is invaluable.

… I would recommend workshops for audiences in regional NZ who find it hard to get reliable, accurate and up to date info on their region."

– Economic Development Manager, at a South Island Council
